Manchester United played out a goalless draw with rival Liverpool on Sunday to maintain their lead on the league table with 34 points.
However, coach of the Red Devils Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has expressed disappointment at the outcome of the game, admitting that it felt like a missed opportunity which would have seen them go six points clear had they won at Anfield.
Liverpool had more possession of the ball through out the entire duration. But, it was not enough to bury the game as the Reds have now gone three matches without a goal.
“We didn’t deserve the three points because we didn’t play well enough,” Solskjaer told Sky Sports. “We didn’t impose ourselves on the game, especially first half. We grew in the game and thought it was there to win in the second half and created two massive chances.
“We can play better than this, we know that. We can be more composed; we can have the ball more. We had to defend really often, and we gave the ball away too often. A couple of things we need to improve on.”
Although, Solskjaer’s men did produce more shots on target than their opponents as they went twice on goal through Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes but both attempts were stopped by Liverpool goalkeeper Allison Becker.
“I’ve got to be honest and say I’m disappointed at the moment,” added Solskjaer. “With the injuries they have had lately, you want to come here and get a result. We didn’t, but a point might be OK if we win the next one.”
